Research has been carried out to determine the optimum conditions for making quicklime (CaO) using the Taguchi Method. CaO is the burning result of limestone (CaCO_3) in calcination process by releasing of CO_2 gas until CaO solids occur. The limestone was calcined at 950^o c. The Taguchi Method is a quality improvement technique with the selection of the most influential parameters of the making of process CaO. The parameters are particle size, CaO mass, heating temperature and stirring time. The XRF results show that the levels of CaO after the Taguchi Method design has increased from 98.779% to 98.814%. The XRD results show that the CaO phase is amorphous. The phase which were formed by calcination are Lime (CaO), Quartz (SiO_2) and Hematite (〖Fe〗_2 O_3). Based on the SEM results, the morphology of CaCO_3 has an irregular particle size and tends to be a granular solid due to the presence of impurity. Meanwhile, the results of the EDS analysis show that the content of Calcium (Ca) is quite high. From the design results of the Taguchi Method, the optimum conditions is obtained at a particle size of 140 mesh, 75 gr CaO mass, heating temperature 70^o c and stirring time 0,5 hour.

In this study, we sought to improve the dissolution characteristics of a poorly water-soluble BCS class IV drug canaglifozin, by preparing nanosuspension using media milling method. A Plackett–Burman screening design was employed to screen the significant formulation and process variables. A total of 12 experiment were generated by design expert trial version 12 for screening 5 independent variables namely the amount of stabilizer in mg (X1), stirring time in hr (X2), amt of Zirconium oxide beads in gm (X3), amount of drug in mg (X4) and stirring speed in rpm (X5) while mean particle size in nm (Y1) and drug release in 10 min. were selected as the response variables. All the regression models yielded a good fit with high determination coefficient and F value. The Pareto chart depicted that all the independent variables except the amount of canaglifozin had a significant effect (p<0.001) on the response variables. The mathematical model for mean particle size generated from the regression analysis was given by mean particle size = +636.48889 -1.28267 amt of stabilizer(X1) -4.20417 stirring time (X2) -7.58333 amt of ZrO2 beads(X3) -0.105556 amt of drug(X4) -0.245167 stirring speed(X5) (R2=0.9484, F ratio=22.07, p<0.001). Prepared canaglifozin nanosuspension exemplified a significant improvement (p<0.05) in the release as compared to pure canaglifozin and marketed tablet with the optimum formulation releasing almost 80% drug within first 10min. Optimized nanosuspension showed spherical shape with surface oriented stabilizer molecules and a mean particle diameter of 120.5 nm. There was no change in crystalline nature after formulation and it was found to be chemically stable with high drug content.

Rheological measurements were conducted on a variety of anaerobically digested sewage sludges to evaluate the potential use of rheology in describing the effects of chemical conditioning on the physical characteristics of sludges. The objectives of the study were to evaluate the influence of the method of chemical conditioning on rheological measurements; to determine the response of the viscometer system to changes in the instrument variables; and to evaluate interrelationships between rheology and other physical properties. All rheological measurements were made using a coaxial rotational viscometer. Evaluation of a variety of test procedures identified that both the method of adding chemical conditioners, and the acceleration rate of the rotational viscometer, could significantly alter the shape of the rheograms. A suggested methodology was identified and selected samples were analyzed in triplicate to test the reproducibility of the procedures. Existing mathematical models do not adequately describe the variety of flow behaviour patterns observed with sewage sludge. The concepts of yield stress and apparent viscosity also have limited value due to problems of definition and calculation. A parameter termed the “instantaneous viscosity”, defined as the derivative of the flow curve, is suggested as being more suitable for describing sludge behaviour. The relationships between chemical conditioning, particle size distribution and applied shear were explored. As polymer addition increased, the sludge particles became more susceptible to shear breakup. The extent of particle size reduction was a function of the rate of shear and the time during which the shear was maintained.

AbstractThe electric conductivity is experimentally studied in nanofluids based on water and ethylene glycol containing copper and aluminum particles. Other properties, such as heat conductivity and rheological characteristics, were evaluated as well. The electric conductivity of nanofluids is shown to increase almost linearly with a nanoparticle concentration, but, unlike the heat conductivity, a gain in electric conductivity is due to a decrease in particle size. In this respect, the mechanisms of electric conductivity and heat conductivity are assumed to have the fundamentally different nature.

Nanosuspensions are the dispersions of nanosized particles in a suitable vehicle prepared using surfactants or solubilizers to aid in nanosize distribution. Nanosuspension is best suited for dosage form development of poorly soluble drugs. According to the biopharmaceutical classification system, drugs with poor solubility fall either in BCS class II or BCS class IV. BCS class II drugs show poor solubility and good permeability; hence their bioavailability problems can be overcome by improving their solubility. Metaxalone is one such BCS class II drug from an oxazolidin-2-one class of centrally acting muscle relaxant drugs, indicated for relief of discomforts associated with acute, painful musculoskeletal conditions. Therefore, in present investigation, nanosuspension of Metaxalone has been formulated as an attempt to improve solubility and hence the overall bioavailability of Metaxalone. Media milling technique has been employed for nanosuspension preparation. Surfactant concentration (Poloxamer 407) and stirring time has been optimized using 32 factorial design to achieve desired particle size and saturation solubility responses as dependent variables. The particle size (PS) of 215.3 nm and maximum saturation solubility (SS) of 2805μg/ml was obtained as suggested solutions from factorial design which was further confirmed using check point analysis. Interaction of surfactant concentration and stirring time and their effect on particle size and saturation solubility was predicted using the contour plots and response surface plots. The optimized formulation showed around 99% metaxalone in vitro dissolution in comparison to around 46% dissolution from SKELAXIN® tablet at 30 minutes. These methodologies could therefore be employed successfully to improve solubility of any BCS class II drug and to predict effects and interactions of many experimental variables at the same time.

This study was carried out to prepare and characterize domperidone nanoparticles to enhance solubility and the release rate. Domperidone is practically insoluble in water and has low and an erratic bioavailability range from 13%-17%. The domperidone nanoparticles were prepared by solvent/antisolvent precipitation method at different polymer:drug ratios of 1:1 and 2:1 using different polymers and grades of poly vinyl pyrolidone, hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose as stabilizers. The effect of polymer type, ratio of polymer:drug, solvent:antisolvent ratio, stirring rate and stirring time on the particle size, were investigated and found to have a significant (p? 0.05) effect on particle size. The best formula was obtained with lowest average particle size of 84.05. This formula was studied for compatibility by FTIR and DSC, surface morphology by FESEM and crystalline state by XRPD. Then domperidone nanoparticles were formulated into a simple capsule dosage form in order to study of the in vitro release of drug from nanoparticles in comparison raw drug and mixture of polymer:drug ratios of 2:1. The release of domperidone from best formula was highly improved with a significant (p? 0.05) increase.
